Although Hu Mingchen found someone to carry the black pot, it was impossible for him to do things absolutely.

On the day of the opening, Hu Mingchen still gave Hu Jianqiang, Hu Jianjun and Jiang Yucai ten movie tickets each as favors. As for how to grasp this degree in the future, it depends on how Hu Jianqiang controls it, for this, Hu Mingchen also taught Hu Jianqiang a cheeky but barely passable trick.

"If someone can't get in the way, you don't want to ask for money, but if someone else takes the initiative to buy a ticket, don't refuse. If you refuse twice, you won't do it the next time. But after you receive it for the first time, the person behind you is embarrassed not to continue to hand over the money, and this routine is naturally developed. Although this will still make people have something to say, at least you don't take the initiative to reach out, and others can't say anything. ”

This is Hu Mingchen's bad idea, in the countryside, favors are often mutual, Hu Jianqiang will feel embarrassed to accept money from acquaintances, but acquaintances will also feel embarrassed not to give money at first.

And Hu Mingchen is planning to take advantage of this feature, and receive the money in half a push.

Hu Mingchen, who was born and raised in Sri Lanka, knows too well the character of the locals.

In fact, Hu Mingchen also wants to benefit the public and win a reputation for generosity and righteousness, but reason tells him that he is far from that extent.

Since he has done business and done business, the pursuit of profit maximization is a choice that he has to choose, not to mention that Hu Mingchen still owes a lot of debts, and the conditions at home are so embarrassing, and the good man doctrine must not be at this time.

It is good to get a good evaluation from others, but it will be even more sad and sad for your own family to be hungry. One is the face, the other is the inside, which is more important, if you can't tell the difference, then it is not suitable to take the road of shopping malls.

Even if you want to give back to the township, you have to wait for the day when you have the ability and strength. When he completes the primitive accumulation and prospers, Hu Mingchen will definitely not be stingy to pull the people around him and let them follow him to prosperity.

On the day of the opening of the Duge Cinema, it happened to be the day of the rush, and the old and young of the four miles and eight villages gathered on Dug Street, and for a while, the already small Duge Street was crowded and crowded.

It was also on this day that the people who came to the scene discovered a big new thing in Duge Township, and a movie theater was opened on the street, which was tantamount to an eye-opening thing for the villagers who rarely watched TV.

Early in the morning, just after eight o'clock, the loudspeaker of the Dugg Cinema began to emit deafening music, which immediately captured everyone's attention and curiosity.

Chen Xuesheng's stereo didn't dare to open very loudly in the city, but when he arrived in Duge Township, he had no scruples, and the two stereos hanging under the eaves outside the warehouse were turned on to the maximum, and their sound covered the entire street at once.

Originally, the street should be noisy and noisy, but under the cover of the loud speakers, it seems to be a little quiet.

"Where is this sound, so loud?"

"Ah, don't you even know that? Our Dugg Cinema opened today, and the sound is the cinema. ”

"Oh, why haven't I heard that we still have a movie theater in Duge Township, how can it be, we are so poor here. ”

"I don't believe you sold the bun and went to see it, it's half price today, and you can go to a movie after selling it. ”

"Really, I'm really going to check it out later, I didn't think we would have a movie theater here. ”

......

"Sister Huan, do you have time, my brother invites you to the movies. ”

"Who is your sister Huan, you are almost a little set, you still talk nonsense, there is no TV, where will there be a movie. ”

"Hehe, how can I talk nonsense, you see, I have bought all the movie tickets, martial arts films, I am waiting for you here in Qiaotou, if you don't believe it, you can hear the sound of the movie theater on the street. ”

"Gee, there's really a loud noise. ”

"That's it, Sister Huan, let's go, I'll accompany you to sell vegetables, and we'll go to see it later, I heard that today's movie is good, it's played by a big star in Hong Kong." ”

"Hong Kong?"

"Yes, let's go, let's go, I'm not a bad person, and watching a movie doesn't mean anything, you just give me a chance to get to know me. ”

......

"It's a strange thing that you can't believe you can have a movie theater here. ”

"Boss Chen, don't look down on our Duge Township, if there are other places, why can't we have them here. ”

"Hehe, I didn't look down on you Duge Township, I just ...... After all, it's still relatively poor, and few locals can afford to watch movies. ”

"What's wrong with being poor, if you're poor, why did you come to us from the city to sell things and make us money. Hey, I don't buy it from you, there are still shoes sold in front, I'll go to the front to buy it, so that your dog looks down on people. ”

"Eh, eh, don't go, I'll make you cheaper......"

"I don't want it, I can afford a pair of shoes if it's more expensive, and I still have to go to the movies, hum!"

......

Because of this sudden appearance of the movie theater, all kinds of discussions and entanglements occurred everywhere in Duge Township.

The first movie in the cinema was scheduled to start at ten o'clock, but after eight o'clock, the gate of the cinema gradually became crowded with people, including naughty children, young men and women who had changed and washed, and even old men with baskets on their backs.

And as time goes on, the crowd of people who gather this way is increasing.

It's just that most of these people gather here with the mood to watch the excitement, and only some young people really spend money to buy tickets.

One dollar a ticket, even in the backward Duge Township, many people can still afford it, but the whirlwind has not yet blown, and the music coming out of the stereo can attract them, but it can't stimulate them to pay for tickets enthusiastically. A lot of people are still talking about what movies are like, what movies are shown today, and how watching movies is different from watching TV.

"Third uncle, how many tickets have you sold?"

"It's only about forty sheets, you can see it yourself, there are a lot of people watching the excitement, the gate is almost blocked, and there are a lot of people standing in the courtyard, but there are still a few people who are willing to spend money. Hu Jianqiang, who was sitting behind a yellow desk at the gate and selling tickets, seemed indifferent.

In order to perform today, Hu Jianqiang put on a low-quality suit he bought two years ago, and the leather shoes that were not new were polished as bright as possible.

At the beginning, Hu Jianqiang was excited when he saw many people coming to the warehouse from the street, he thought that those people would pay for a ticket to see it fresh, but who knows, people stopped outside the gate, just stretched their necks to look inside.

Occasionally, some young people paid for tickets, but compared to expectations, they were still far from what they expected.

The reason why I chose to open on this day was because I hoped to be an instant hit, but it turned out to be nondescript.

Hu Jianqiang is not an investor, but now he is taking care of this movie theater, if it is yellow from the beginning, then he will be just as uncomfortable.

"Third uncle, it's okay, it's only half past nine, and there is still half an hour. And movies are a new thing for us, let's wait and see, it's normal, if it were you, you might not ask for money as soon as you come, you always have to see the situation first. Hu Mingchen looked at those curious villagers and comforted Hu Jianqiang.

"I hope that's what you say. Hu Jianqiang didn't dare to have Hu Mingchen's confidence.

"Xiao Chen, it's about to start, and it's only a fifth of the way inside, what should I do?" At this time, Hu Jianjun, who was collecting tickets inside, came out of the theater and asked in a low voice.

Today, Hu Mingchen's family went out as a family, Hu Jianjun collected the tickets, Jiang Yucai was responsible for cleaning, and as for Hu Yandie and Hu Yujiao, of course, they accompanied their classmates to watch movies.

Hu Jianjun in Hu Mingchen's opening of a movie theater, whether he is willing or not, open, he still hopes that the business will be hot, once he also had a similar view to Hu Mingchen, thinking that the day of opening will attract locals to pay forever, but the result is like this, his confidence is lost all of a sudden.

If on the day of opening, and it is still a rush day, a movie can only sit one-fifth, then how dare you think about business after that?

As soon as he thought that the business was bleak and the family's house could not be repaired, Hu Jianjun's mood fell straight from the sky.

"No matter how many seats I sit, the movie starts as usual, everything is difficult at the beginning, and I believe it will get better and better. Hu Mingchen turned to Hu Jianjun and comforted.

Is Hu Mingchen really full of confidence and certainty? Not really.

There has never been such a new thing in Duge Township, and there is no reference object at all, so Hu Mingchen is not fully sure what will happen to business.

Hu Mingchen did this, just based on one of his basic judgments and feelings, thinking that he could get it, and there should be a business.

Now that the first movie is only half an hour away, only forty people buy tickets, and the normal capacity of the Dugg Cinema is two hundred, it is impossible to say that Hu Mingchen's heart is not shaken and not worried.

What was invested was real money, not to mention that he still owed more than 10,000 debts, if this movie theater failed, then Hu Mingchen didn't know how to repay the debt and how to face the complaints of the whole family.

It's just that Hu Mingchen can only hold on now, if even he, the initiator, is shaken and becomes less confident, let alone others.

So no matter what the start is, Hu Mingchen has to hold on calmly, he must give enough confidence to the people around him, if the battle has not started, they will collapse first, then it is strange that the business can still get better.

All the pressure is summed up on Hu Mingchen's body, whether his small body is straight or not, at this moment, he has to show the role of the backbone.

"I'm afraid it's going to get worse and worse, and the tickets for one dollar are like this, and I can't imagine that the price will become two dollars, and anyone will want to see it. Hu Jianjun did not bring up his confidence because of Hu Mingchen's reassurance.
